So my last update I was very annoyed with my faja but it has gone away, I still try to wear it everyday but I am able to take it off and put it on myself now so I can actually allow myself to breathe outside of it. I've started wearing my waist shaper and spandex some days which is more comfortable to me. UNFORTUNATELY I got food poisoning which has left me with terrible diarrhea so I haven't been wearing my suit because of how frequently I've been using the restroom. Since its been days without my suit my sides and stomach are so sore and puffy but the suit will be too hard to get off as quickly as I'd need to. I've been sleeping on my side to keep myself comfortable through this sickness, with all this going on I was so nervous to completely mess up all my results but everything has been okay. Once it's all done, I'll be back in my suit and back to laying on my stomach ! I actually can't wait for my back to feel a bit better so I can start doing light work outs.

Hey girl you look incredible and glad nothing major is going on! Hope you are doing better! I got a call from Spectrum and they want me to decide by this Friday to lock a date and the special they have. I'm nervous on just going with Dr Alvarez, I've heard great reviews on him and the other two Doctors that work there, but nervous choosing a doctor. Hope you fell better and keep us posted on your great results and recovery!

I'm not even in pain really but I am SO UNCOMFORTABLE with this suit and these pads 24/7 the more I wear them the more uncomfortable they've gotten. I'm so annoyed the suit makes me itch like crazy, along with these damn meds. The pain meds don't do [RS bleep] & I'm lowkey tired of not sitting or laying on my back. My days go so slowly because I'm just uncomfortable all day. I'm happy with my decision however in annoyed with this damn process and who knows how long until I'm healed. [RS bleep] this faja seriously

Lol, I'm here with you, it's honestly aggravating, I'm soo itchy and unlike you my stomach is swollen and hard I cried the other day when I finally got a massage I really wish I didn't wait for so long. How often do you get massages?

I got a massage the next day after my surgery, not a lot of fluid came out. And I got another one 2 days later but my incisions closed rather quickly. My boyfriend gives me massages like everyday now because my back is sore, my stomach is hard tho ! I don't have him touch that, it hurts.

Hang in there!  I've heard other community members say they wear a thin tank top under their garments to help reduce the itch.

I felt the same way... I actually added Spanx to replace the garment. At times I keep my garment off for a few hours so my skin can breathe while I lotion up. Good luck!
